Demo 01 of 5 - Spend Intelligence

Every dollar saved. Every dollar prevented from leaving. Every opportunity still on the table.

ProcureIQ is the procurement value-tracking layer most ERPs were never built to be. Hard cost savings, cost avoidance, time saved by automation, the pipeline of unrealized opportunity, and an AI Teammate that answers questions about the data in chat. The number your CFO wishes she had next to the spend column, with the conversation layer that explains it.

You get A single board that quantifies what procurement actually delivered, validated and traceable, refreshed every time an entry lands. Plus chat-based answers on top.
Without it Procurement wins live in slide decks and email threads. The CFO never sees the avoidance. Renewal season has no proof to lean on.
We build A savings and avoidance register inside your Workspace, with the entry form, validation queue, dashboards, period rollups, and an AI assistant already wired against your data.
01 - The dashboard

Live mock data. Real workflow.

Five KPI tiles, four-series momentum chart, segment-interactive value mix, top categories, efficiency vector, and a recent-entries log. Hover anything for detail. Sample tenant Acme Industrial. The mechanics are the production thing.

Four-series momentum. Cumulative trailing six months across cost savings, cost avoidance, AI time value, and the opportunity pipeline. Hover the chart to compare all four at any month. Click a legend chip to isolate one series. The pipeline line is dashed because those dollars are identified but not yet realized.

$2.41M of validated value across 142 entries YTD. Click a segment to drill into the type-level breakdown.

Tip: legend rows and segments are both interactive.

Top Categories (YTD)
Where the value clusters. Categories ranked by total $ saved plus avoided this fiscal year. Direct materials always leads in industrial operations because that is where the leverage is. The smaller bars matter too: a high-tail category like Capital equipment often hides single-event wins worth six figures each.

Logistics / freight$548K
IT / SaaS$402K
MRO supplies$312K
Energy / utilities$232K
Professional services$164K
Capital equipment$58K
Efficiency Vector
How mature is the function. Five dimensions scored 0 to 100 from the underlying operational data. Cycle time is the weak signal here at 54, which tells finance that approvals are dragging. Automation at 81 confirms the bots are doing their job. A radar is useful precisely because no single KPI captures function maturity.

Recent entries
Where the numbers come from. Every KPI on this page rolls up from rows like these. Each entry stores the type, the category, the vendor change, the dollar value, the buyer who claimed it, and the validation status. Audit-ready, traceable to the source artifact (RFQ comparison, signed contract, invoice).

Demo dataset. Acme Industrial is a fictional tenant. Buyer and vendor names are fictional. No live customer data appears on this page.

02 - ProcureIQ + AI Teammate

Stop scrolling. Ask.

ProcureIQ surfaces the numbers. The AI Teammate answers questions about them in plain language, with the trace. Same data, two surfaces, one conversation. This is the part most BI tools forgot to build.

Why merge the dashboard with chat?

Dashboards answer questions someone already thought to plot. Chat answers the question that lands in your head five minutes before the operations review starts. Both are honest. Only one is fast enough for the room.

  • Same source of truth. The AI Teammate reads the same validated entries the dashboard rolls up. No second database to keep in sync.
  • Trace, not vibes. Every response cites the entries that produced it, with dates, buyers, and amounts. Audit-defensible.
  • Two surfaces, one platform. The Teammate also drives the Purchasing Bot demo for vendor lookups, approvals, and PO status.
  • Built on your stack. Gemini through Vertex AI for Google Workspace tenants, Azure OpenAI for Microsoft 365. The model never leaves your cloud account. Your data never leaves your tenant.

What changed in May?
Answer

Hard cost savings rose 33 percent month over month.

May added $405K validated against $304K in April. Top driver: Direct materials, where two contract renegotiations landed in the final week. Avoidance held steady at $108K. Pipeline added $228K with five new RFQ opportunities qualified.

Show me Sarah's wins this quarter.
Answer

Sarah Chen logged 14 validated entries QTD totaling $284K.

Entries14 Total value$284K Avg / entry$20.3K Pending2

Category mix: Direct materials 62 percent, IT / SaaS 22 percent, Energy 16 percent. Two pending validations are awaiting manager review (one for $48.2K, one for $14.1K).

Source: ProcureIQ entries filtered by buyer = Sarah Chen, period = QTD.

Where are we losing momentum?
Answer

Cycle time is the weak signal.

Median PR-to-approved climbed from 4.2 to 6.1 days over the trailing quarter. The Efficiency Vector reflects this at 54 of 100 on Cycle time. Three approvers account for 73 percent of the delay (J. Patel, R. Singh, M. Hwang). Want a deeper breakdown by approver, by category, or by week?

Source: PR approval timestamps over the trailing 90 days, cross-referenced with approver assignments.

03 - How it works

From a one-line entry to a board-ready number.

Three short loops, every one of them living inside your existing Workspace. No new database, no new vendor system, no new login.

Loop 01

Capture

Buyer logs a saving, avoidance, time win, or opportunity through a one-screen form. Type, category, vendor change, dollar amount, project tag, optional notes.

Source of truth: Google Sheet (or SharePoint list) in your tenant.
Validation: Manager queue with one-click approve.
Refresh: Real-time on entry.

Loop 02

Roll up

Period roll-ups, fiscal year mapping, category totals, buyer leaderboard, vendor consolidation impact. Charts and KPI tiles refresh from the same sheet, no manual reporting.

Engine: Apps Script / Power Automate inside your Workspace.
Cadence: On-entry plus a nightly reconciliation.
Drill-down: Every KPI links to its source entries.

Loop 03

Surface

Auto-generated period report for finance and the executive team. AI Teammate answers questions about the data in chat, with the trace. Trend lines on category, buyer, and vendor moves.

Delivery: Scheduled email, shared dashboard link, or chat.
AI layer: Gemini on Vertex AI / Azure OpenAI on M365.
Audit: Every line traceable back to the original entry.

04 - The ERP gap (this demo)

Your ERP records the spend. It does not record the value you defended.

ERPs were designed as systems of record for transactions, not as systems of measure for procurement value. The gap is structural, not feature parity. We close it without ripping the ERP out.

Your ERP shows What ProcureIQ adds
PO created at the new negotiated price The validated dollar delta versus the prior contract, attributed to the buyer who negotiated it
Invoice paid The overspend that did not happen, when the team caught a quote drift before it became a PO
Active vendor master The avoidance value of every vendor consolidation, specification change, or sole-source alternative qualified
Spend by GL account The buyer and category leaderboard that explains who moved the number and how
Open POs The opportunity pipeline of identified-but-not-yet-actioned wins, projected annual if pulled
Fiscal close numbers The AI time-value attributed to every automation already running, plus chat-driven answers on the full dataset

The dashboard plus AI Teammate above is the first cut. Every expansion below is already designed, waiting on engagement budget to ship.

Want ProcureIQ and the AI Teammate built inside your own stack?
